[00:55:56] <bacteria> i took my kids to the park today, there was a dad there who kept telling everyone 'lets go brandon' and tried to convince them to spread the word....

[09:54:28] <FatPhil> Can You Make Your Headlines More Compelling Using These 4 Cool Techniques?

[10:25:35] <chromas> Are all headlines featuring pronouns automatically clickbait? I need a $450k federal grant to study this
[10:25:47] <chromas> Maybe I can get some Build Back Better gibs
[10:51:35] <FatPhil> demonstrative pronouns, yup
[10:51:51] <chromas> Shhh, I haven't got the grant yet
[10:52:10] <FatPhil> but you'll then have to pay your Gib Back More taxes, which will make you cry
[10:52:22] <chromas> Hm, just updated laptop and now the screen is blank after reboot
[10:52:56] <chromas> backlight's on and output goes to hdmi socket if something's plugged in. even firmware screen doesn't appear on built-in display
[10:53:28] <FatPhil> have you tried turning it off and on again?
[10:53:58] <chromas> Several times. Also the Fn-[display-toggle-key] dindu nuffin' but output the letter P

[10:54:13] <FatPhil> did you know that there are display controller chips that will only power up a finite number of times...
[10:54:22] <chromas> Seems legit
[10:55:58] <FatPhil> in the kernel team we started to hit this during development of the N950 - as typically we were power cycling our protos 100+ times per day. Suddenly the screens stopped working. H/w team finally admitted that that was a "hardware feature".
[10:56:53] <chromas> Were they writing a boot count to nand flash and wore out the cell?
[10:57:58] <FatPhil> there were firmware settings in flash on-chip, and a boot count was apparently one of them
[10:58:24] <boru> Easy enough to fix that.
[10:58:55] <chromas> This lap used to have an issue where bumping it would sometimes cause it to sperg out. When I opened the bottom panel, the ram fell out
[10:59:01] <FatPhil> there was no outside access to those counters, it was pretty much a brick condidion
[10:59:43] <FatPhil> The real phones would have a slightly different version of the chip, apparently. This was an "anti-theft" measure.
[11:00:32] <FatPhil> Bring back DIPs!
[11:00:49] <chromas> Only a thief would reboot that many times
[11:01:06] <boru> SOIC and friends are also fine. Flatpacks are the annoying packages.
[11:01:09] <boru> And BGAs.
[11:01:30] <FatPhil> Yeah, it all started going downhill with the QFPs
[11:01:37] * boru nods.
[11:02:13] <FatPhil> (and this is a guy who used to suffer from ram-pack wobble...)
[11:02:52] * FatPhil sees how long it takes chromas to contrive a joke from that statement
[11:04:46] <chromas> I'll have to cumback to that later
[11:05:58] <chromas> Oh wait, I think the commonly accepted solution to pak wobble was to go downhill on the QFP and give it a blow
[11:06:33] <chromas> nah
[11:07:33] <chromas> I think I've used up my quip quota for the morning so I'll have to wait for the refractory period

[14:03:07] <systemd> ^ 03With Thursday’s launch, SpaceX continues to increase cadence of booster reuse
[14:03:36] <Bytram> >>> SpaceX will seek to launch its "Transporter-3" mission into low Earth orbit from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida on Thursday morning.
[14:03:49] <Bytram> >>> The rocket has a 29-minute launch window, which opens at 10:25 am ET (15:25 UTC), and weather conditions are forecast to be fair. This will be the company's third rideshare mission in which it uses its Falcon 9 rocket to compete with small satellite launch companies.
[14:04:35] <Bytram> >>> The combined mass of the payloads is light enough that SpaceX will be able to perform a land-based return of the Falcon 9 first stage at its landing zone along the Florida coast—the first in more than half a year. Nearby residents, therefore, will be able to enjoy both a launch and then a series of sonic booms about eight minutes after liftoff.

[17:39:10] <FatPhil> That is not a responsible way to run a public healthcare system. They appear to be under the misapprehension that all vaccines are identical. In which case, why didn't they just give you a dose of cowpox?
[17:39:45] <FatPhil> They never completed the in vivo testing of the original SARS vaccine, maybe they could just roll out testing of that too?
[17:43:05] <Ingar> Well, I didn't vote for the people who are making the decisions (nobody really did, but hey, democracy) and it's only a matter of time before the shot is mandatory to do my job. Even if it were cat piss I'd still have to get it. The alternative is to start a rebellion and too few people care.
[17:44:47] <Ingar> I survived two shots and two years in the wild, If the cat piss kills me I obviously won't care any more either.

[22:36:34] <Runaway1956> Ingar - doesn't it say on your card which flavor of vax you got?
[22:42:06] <FatPhil> it really ought to, given that "expiration/invalidity" dates will differ depending on the precise jabbing received.
[22:44:19] -!- inky has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[22:44:26] <FatPhil> And technically, the antibody resistence degradation, and probably T-cell responsiveness too, correlate with the gap between jabs 1 and 2, so that ought to be considered when defining a cut-off.
[22:44:50] <FatPhil> In a way that, obviously, encourages people to put off jab 2.
[22:44:59] <FatPhil> Oh, wait, that would be counter-productive.
[22:45:58] <FatPhil> I got this - let's pull a number out of the middle of the range, and define everything past that as completely invalid, and everything before that as totally peachy - please go to sweaty orgies, because you're just fine.
